Well I shouldve taken Mike's advice and used strips of cloth in the mold to help it from tearing. There were a few issues. I was going to make this a 2 part mold but because of the weakness of the rubber it started to tear so I know have a 3 part mold. I havd to save it by cutting it apart. So I have pics of the three parts of the molds. Also another sad thing happened while demolding the gun broke into a couple of peices itself so today I have been putting it back together. So here are some other pics of the gun being put back together. Also I am starting an interest thread for the DC-15 Carbine in the For Sale thread so please do not post that you want one over here post it over there. I am also starting a new thread here for a DC-15 Long Rifle so check that out over there.

Trial and error, trial and error.....Hey it looks good, and your skills are by far beyond my own. I like the look of the carbine, and cant wait to see the final finished product. Just curious but since you cast the stock seperately is it going to be functional? Ie you know fold? Or is it supposed to be one piece?

I actually made the mold as a one peice but I tried casting and I can't get the peice out so I had to throw away the mold. As of now I am deciding I will make some out of sintra and they will be folding. I did forget to mention this. I made a cast and it turned out ok. I am going to fix it all up and post pics then.
